Mission Control Links

Ellie’s House

Things have seemingly been quiet here at Mission Control lately. I assure you, there’s plenty going on. Ellie continues to send updates on her findings from Planet X and has built herself a little laboratory to help her in her research. Made from the wreckage of her space capsule, it contains all kinds of experiments and things she’s collected. A nice little home base to work from.

Work on the Ellie On Planet X graphic novel continues. Edits to the script took longer than I thought, but it’s almost finished. Then it’s on to the drawing! I’m considering adding some colors to the art and the illustration above is a test for that idea. Let me know what you think!

UPDATE: I wanted to see what it would look like if I flipped the colors of the trees and the flowers.

And here’s the thumbnails from my sketchbook that started it all.

UPDATE II:

Just finished the script for the graphic novel. Drawing commences shortly.

oh wow! i used to read this comic and never commented as i had no email,and then no computer for two or so years. now i have both and can finally say: ellie is the most original and adorable webcomics i have ever seen! and i have lots of catching up to do…

Great to hear all this good news regarding your progression with the GN! As many have pointed out, your art is as mouthwatering as ever and I really love the your use of a broader colour palette on this illustration. Simply fantastic!

Very nice James! Both the original and the flipped version are great! I do like the the original a smidge better. I guess I just like purple trees! Elle looks just as cute as always and it was nice to see her smile this morning. I’m glad to hear thing are moving on the GN and I admire your work ethic. Thanks for the update!
